River Street Project

The River Street Project is coming along, slowly. Most of the work is done. We still have to fill in along the back of the field, and are looking for another 1000 yards (or so) of fill. We have to get that leveled off for a River Walk sidewalk that will follow the tree-line. We'll be picking rocks again in the spring, before the first cut.

Now, we have to pay for the project. Cost of the work done so far has exceeded $40,000. We've had some fantastic contributions, and are excited and thank full to have so many fine businesses and citizens participating in this project. If you would like to make a donation, please feel free to call the club, e-mail, or simply send in a check (P.O. Box 114).

Ferris Coach Works With U11 Girls

On Thursday, September 24^th, Ferris State University Women's Head Soccer coach Neathan Gibson ran practice for the Northland United Soccer Clubs U-11 girls travel team. Gibson a former professional soccer player, took time from his busy schedule to help the 2-0 U-11 girls. U-11 head coach Curt Ray along with assistant coach Don Zimmer have been very pleased with the performance of their girls, but think they need the finish touch of a professional. This is a great opportunity for the girls and the club. To be 9 or 10 years old and have your practice ran by a pro is a dream come true. The girls have two more game in Grand Rapids, and finish the last four game at home.

Weather Policy

Assume that games will played as scheduled, unless the weather conditions are really bad (downpour, lightning, or thunder). Look to the web for cancellation notices. If you don't see one, go to the field. You can call your coach, but he probably won't know any more than you do, and, hearing you're reluctance to get wet, he may be tempted to cancel the game from home. Soccer games are played in the rain. The kids usually enjoy it; the parents don't. On occasion, games may be cancelled by the club and rescheduled for a later date. Cancelled games will be played at the same scheduled time, one week after the normal end of the season. If games are cancelled by the NUSC, the cancellation will be posted on the web. Keep an eye on the weather with NOAA Radar. Please read more...
